Description · Heavy Duty Pallet Racks 1000 kg

Installing heavy duty pallet racks creates structured storage across industrial premises, featuring a 255 cm height, 184 cm span, and 100 cm depth. This model incorporates 2 blue RAL 5010 upright frames and 4 orange RAL 2002 beams, providing 2 beam levels plus floor space to store up to 6 Euro pallets per module. Designed to deliver a 1000 kg load capacity per level, this unit supports 2000 kg total weight on beams, making this kit an efficient choice for compact commercial facilities across Ireland.

Setting up heavy duty pallet racks with 2 beam levels provides 3 load heights per bay when counting the ground position underneath. This structure accommodates 2 Euro pallets measuring 800x1200 mm or 1 American pallet measuring 1000x1200 mm across each elevation. A single section holds up to 6 Euro pallets or 3 American pallets in total. This specific configuration is ideal for facilities that require substantial storage capacity without needing tall, multi-tier overhead beam arrangements for daily inventory handling.

This model delivers a maximum capacity of 1000 kg per beam level under uniformly distributed weight, achieving a total rating of 2000 kg on the beams per bay. Built with a height of 255 cm, a clear width of 184 cm, and a depth of 100 cm, the unit fits standard 800x1200 mm Euro pallets and 1000x1200 mm American pallets precisely. These dimensions allow operators to maximise ground footprint efficiency while retaining structural stability across individual heavy duty pallet racks deployed inside the facility.

Each kit includes 4 uprights of 2550 mm, diagonal bracing bars, horizontal bracing bars, and 4 base plates measuring 120x120 mm with M10 bolts and nuts. The 4 beams connect to the upright frame posts through welded connectors locked securely with safety pins. Ground stability is achieved using 9 M10x70 expansion anchors driven into the floor. Assembling these heavy duty pallet racks requires no specialised welding, as the components bolt together directly into a rigid, self-supporting framework ready for immediate industrial service.

Finished in high-visibility industrial paint, the unit features blue RAL 5010 upright frames paired with orange RAL 2002 load beams. This colour scheme enhances warehouse safety during fork truck operations. Customisation options include 1800 mm timber shelf decks for lower tier picking, high-visibility upright protectors, and end protection barriers in RAL 2004 or RAL 1023. Modular expansion is straightforward, allowing businesses to attach extension modules to existing heavy duty pallet racks while sharing standard upright frames across continuous rows.

Selecting this 2-level model suits commercial units, maintenance workshops, and logistics hubs with limited vertical headroom or specific floor-level pallet storage requirements. Compared to taller 3, 4, 5, or 6-level options in the same range, this kit delivers streamlined stock access without requiring specialised high-reach material handling equipment. Choosing these heavy duty pallet racks ensures a practical, cost-effective setup for storing bulky palletised inventory safely, making it a reliable solution for fast-paced operational environments across Ireland.

Applicable regulations in Ireland · Heavy Duty Pallet Racks 1000 kg · 2 Levels · 255x184 cm

Pallet racking and forklift operation

In Ireland, pallet racking in a forklift-served warehouse is work equipment under Part 2, Chapter 2 of the General Application Regulations 2007 (S.I. No. 299/2007), implementing the EU Work Equipment Directive (now Directive 2009/104/EC). installed and located correctly (Reg. 28); stabilised by clamping or some other means where necessary for safety (Reg. 33), in practice erected as per the manufacturer’s instructions with the uprights anchored to the floor; maintained throughout its working life (Reg. 31); and inspected by a competent person after installation and re-assembly, then periodically and by special inspection after an accident, a modification or any other exceptional event, with records kept for 5 years (Reg. 30). Traffic routes must be dimensioned for the number of users and the type of undertaking, pedestrians given sufficient safety clearance where trucks share them, and areas where objects could fall clearly indicated and access controlled (Reg. 14). Health and Safety Authority guidance asks for the maximum safe load prominently marked on all racks, racking checked regularly for damage and uprights protected from impact; its Code of Practice on the Safe Use of Industrial Trucks adds that features of the operating area such as racking should be clearly marked and protected against accidental damage. EN 15635, the European standard on the use and maintenance of storage equipment, is a technical reference for organising those checks, not a legal obligation.
